To recognize gestures with high precision without impairment of a user's convenience. An information processing device according to the present disclosure includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire manipulation information based on a gesture manipulation of a user; and a processing unit configured to perform processing on a basis of the manipulation information. The processing unit performs predetermined processing in a case where first manipulation information based on a first user manipulation is acquired, and performs the predetermined processing in a case where second manipulation information based on a second user manipulation related to the first user manipulation is acquired and third manipulation information based on a third user manipulation performed within a predetermined period of time after the second user manipulation is acquired.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. An information processing device, comprising: an acquisition unit configured to acquire manipulation information, wherein the manipulation information includes at least one of first manipulation information based on a first gesture manipulation of a user and second manipulation information based on a second gesture manipulation of the user; and a processing unit configured to: determine that the first manipulation information is lesser than a first threshold value; determine, based on the determination that the first manipulation information is lesser than the first threshold value, that the first manipulation information exceeds a second threshold value different from the first threshold value; determine, based on the determination that the first manipulation information exceeds the second threshold value, that the second manipulation information exceeds a third threshold value; detect a gesture based on the determination that the second manipulation information exceeds the third threshold value; and execute a process based on the detected gesture, wherein the second gesture manipulation is an additional gesture manipulation of the user, the second gesture manipulation of the user is performed based on the determination that the first manipulation information exceeds the second threshold value, and the second gesture manipulation of the user is performed within a determined period of time after the first gesture manipulation is performed.
2. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein when the first manipulation information exceeds the first threshold value, the first manipulation information exceeds the second threshold value.
3. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the second gesture manipulation is similar to the first gesture manipulation.
4. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the second gesture manipulation is different from the first gesture manipulation.
5. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising an output unit configured to output information, wherein the information prompts the user to perform the second gesture manipulation based on the first gesture manipulation information.
6. The information processing device according to claim 5 , further comprising a display unit configured to display the information output from the output unit.
7. The information processing device according to claim 5 , further comprising a vibrator configured to cause vibration based on the information output from the output unit, wherein the vibration prompts the user to perform the second gesture manipulation.
8. The information processing device according to claim 5 , wherein the information output from the output unit is audio information.
9. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising a threshold value changing unit configured to change, based on a threshold value changing condition, the first threshold value and the second threshold value.
10. The information processing device according to claim 9 , wherein the threshold value changing condition is a condition related to a situation of a user device.
11. The information processing device according to claim 10 , further comprising an output unit configured to output information, wherein the information prompts the user to perform the second gesture manipulation based on the first gesture manipulation information, wherein the threshold value changing unit is further configured to lower the second threshold value for determination of the second gesture manipulation based on the output of the information from the output unit.
12. The information processing device according to claim 10 , wherein the threshold value changing condition is related to user information.
13. The information processing device according to claim 10 , wherein the threshold value changing condition is related to content information.
14. The information processing device according to claim 10 , wherein the threshold value changing condition is related to environmental information.
15. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising a display unit, wherein the execution of the process comprises display of information on the display unit.
16. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising a display unit, wherein the process comprises lighting a backlight of the display unit.
17. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the information processing device is a watch-type wearable device.
18. An information processing method, comprising: acquiring manipulation information, wherein the manipulation information includes at least one of first manipulation information based on a first gesture manipulation of a user and second manipulation information based on a second gesture manipulation of the user; determining that the first manipulation information is lesser than a first threshold value; determining, based on the determination that the first manipulation information is lesser than the first threshold value, that the first manipulation information exceeds a second threshold value different from the first threshold value; determining, based on the determination that the first manipulation information exceeds the second threshold value, that the second manipulation information exceeds a third threshold value; detecting a gesture based on the determination that the second manipulation information exceeds the third threshold value; and executing a process based on the detected gesture, wherein the second gesture manipulation is an additional gesture manipulation of the user, the second gesture manipulation is similar to the first gesture manipulation, the second gesture manipulation of the user is performed based on the determination that the first manipulation information exceeds the second threshold value, and the second gesture manipulation of the user is performed within a determined period of time after the first gesture manipulation is performed.
19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium, having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions, which when executed by a computer, cause the computer to execute operations, the operations comprising: acquiring manipulation information, wherein the manipulation information includes at least one of first manipulation information based on a first gesture manipulation of a user and second manipulation information based on a second gesture manipulation of the user; determining that the first manipulation information is lesser than a first threshold value; determining, based on the determination that the first manipulation information is lesser than the first threshold value, that the first manipulation information exceeds a second threshold value different from the first threshold value; determining, based on the determination that the first manipulation information exceeds the second threshold value, that the second manipulation information exceeds a third threshold value; detecting a gesture based on the determination that the second manipulation information exceeds the third threshold value; and executing a process based on the detected gesture, wherein the second gesture manipulation is an additional gesture manipulation of the user, the second gesture manipulation is similar to the first gesture manipulation, the second gesture manipulation of the user is performed based on the determination that the first manipulation information exceeds the second threshold value, and the second gesture manipulation of the user is performed within a determined period of time after the first gesture manipulation is performed.
